A Floor is Not Just a Floor


When Ryan Smith, the founder and designer of Modern Shed, living in Seattle, where there are no “alleys” behind homes for easy backyard access, he designed the entire pre-fab building to be in “panels." This allowed two people to carry these panels from the street to the backyard easily. The result included an entire floor “system” as well so the building could sit on simple piers instead of an expensive concrete slab, or in case of sloped land, on tall-in-ground concrete tubes or big-foot piers or pin piers in earthquake zones.

Katherine’s One-Room Schoolhouse


“I wanted to share how I use/used my Modern Shed over the past few years since its creation at our home in Busch Gardens, Pasadena. The Modern Shed (known to most of my friends as “The She-Shed”), was originally added to our property to give me an extra 90 square feet of  “office” space. During the Covid lockdown, it quickly transformed into my one-room schoolhouse! I continue to use it as my tutoring space/office space. I feel so lucky to have had this space as my classroom and to provide curriculum accessibility to my 780 students throughout the virtual learning year of lockdown. Thank you Modern Shed!”
